Special Studies - Revelation Chapter 19
Rejoicing in Heaven, The Marriage Supper of the LAMB, and The Rider on a White Horse
Revelation 19:1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:
[
Note:
And after what things? After the fall of the great whore (Babylon the great) in chapter eighteen. The great voice of many people are those who have passed on in CHRIST. Alleluia means “Praise ye, The LORD”.
]
Revelation 19:2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
[
Note:
The great whore is Babylon the great. This includes the devil and his fallen angels as the leader over GOD’S children. The children are committing idolatry by worshiping satan. GOD calls it fornication so that we can understand the intensity of HIS feelings, but it is idolatry that the children are committing. Those that tried to take GOD'S vineyard are those who have slain GOD’S servants. They are responsible for the blood of Abel and all of GOD’S servants all through history. In these end times, we can identify them as the tares (those of the synagogue of satan), and the devil, along with his fallen ones and those who are deceived into following them.
Remember the fifth seal, when the saints under GOD’S Altar cried saying: How long O LORD, until YOU avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? Well, this is how long. It comes to pass at this point when Babylon falls. And we already know from the book of Daniel that the devil shows up in the middle of the week, which means in the middle of the hour of temptation.
And the hour of temptation is five months long according to Revelation chapter nine. And since the seventh seal shows that there is silence in Heaven for the space of about a half hour, and JESUS returns at the seventh seal, this shows us that the devil will be here on earth as antichrist for about two and a half months.
Keep in mind that we can understand many of the things regarding what will happen, but at the same time, no one knows the day or the hour of JESUS exact return. We do know that the Day when JESUS returns is The LORD'S Day (the Millennium), and the hour that HE returns in, is the hour of temptation, but still we must be careful when we make assumptions, realizing that what we are given is a picture of the season and knowing that no one knows for sure when it will exactly come to pass. I guess we could call this an educated guess.
What is most important to everyone is that we know the devil shows up first at the sixth trump and claims to be GOD, and that he disguises himself as an angel of Light by setting himself up as CHRIST. The devil has two horns like a lamb, but he speaks as a dragon. That is because he is the dragon.
If you are still in your flesh body and a supernatural being shows up claiming to be GOD in the form of CHRIST, it is NOT the TRUE CHRIST. It's satan, claiming to be CHRIST. Do not follow him.
The TRUE CHRIST returns within five months of the devil's arrival as antichrist. It's likely within a half hour of the devil's arrival, meaning that The TRUE CHRIST returns within two and a half months of the devil's arrival as antichrist.
Revelation 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
Revelation 6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
Revelation 6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

Revelation 19:3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. G1519 G165 G165
[
Note:
When something is burned up, the smoke means it is gone permanently, but in this case it means until the end of the age. It is gone permanently, for when the next age begins, the things of this age will not be remembered.
G1519
εἰς
eis
ice
A primary preposition; to or into (indicating the point reached or entered), of place, time, or (figuratively) purpose (result, etc.); also in adverbial phrases.: - [abundant-] ly, against, among, as, at, [back-] ward, before, by, concerning, + continual, + far more exceeding, for [intent, purpose], fore, + forth, in (among, at unto, -so much that, -to), to the intent that, + of one mind, + never, of, (up-) on, + perish, + set at one again, (so) that, therefore (-unto), throughout, till, to (be, the end, -ward), (here-) until (-to), . . . ward, [where-] fore, with. Often used in composition with the same general import, but only with verbs (etc.) expressing motion (literallyor figuratively.
G165
αἰών
aiōn
ahee-ohn'
From the same as G104; properly an age; by extension perpetuity (also past); by implication the world; specifically (Jewish) a Messianic period (present or future): - age, course, eternal, (for) ever (-more), [n-]ever, (beginning of the, while the) world (began, without end). Compare G5550.
Isaiah 65:17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
This means that the devil's end time one world system, The Great Whore, will only be known until the end of this age, all the way out to the end of the Millennium (The LORD'S Day). After that, it is gone always and forever, never to exist again. And if I'm correct, never to be remembered again, because we will never again shed a tear. The former things will pass away.

Revelation 19:4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.
[
Note:
I believe that the twenty four elders are the twelve patriarchs of Israel (the father of each tribe) and the twelve apostles. This is not mentioned in Scripture, it is my opinion only, and based on the twelve gates of the New Jerusalem (one for each tribe) and the twelve apostles of CHRIST. I think of it as one representing the 144,000 and the other representing the election. Again, it is only my opinion.
This is the last time that the four living creatures are mentioned in the book of Revelation.
I think that I should take this opportunity to say a little about the four beasts (the four living creatures).
]
Revelation 19:5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
Revelation 19:6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
[
Note:
“Fear” means to be in awe, reverence, love.
Many waters means many peoples (languages or nations).
GOD reigns; HE takes HIS THRONE, HE takes back HIS earth.

Revelation 19:7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
Revelation 19:8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
Revelation 19:9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
[
Note:
HIS bride consists of HIS true followers; the true church. It’s those that make the first resurrection. She is granted to wear fine white linen which is the righteousness of saints. When we leave this world of flesh, the only thing that we can take with us is our righteous acts. It is our works. Those who have no righteous acts, no works, will be naked.
Matthew 22:1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
Matthew 22:2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,
Matthew 22:3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
Matthew 22:4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
Matthew 22:5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
Matthew 22:6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.
Matthew 22:7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
Matthew 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
Matthew 22:9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
Matthew 22:10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.
Matthew 22:11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
Matthew 22:12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
Matthew 22:13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Matthew 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
When it speaks of “many are called, but few are chosen”, it is speaking of the election. But because of the work of the election, an uncountable number will be saved. Those who don’t have on a wedding garment will be cast out into the Millennium where they will weep and gnash their teeth. If they do not have any righteous acts, what clothes will they have to wear?
And take note that the end is happening and Babylon has fallen. This is the first time that the marriage supper of the LAMB is spoken of, and the end is already in progress. Many rapture believers would have you believe that they are raptured away to take part in the marriage supper of the LAMB before the hour of temptation takes place on the earth. This shows that their claim is false doctrine.

Revelation 19:10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
[
Note:
John was in awe of all that he was witnessing, so he falls at the feet of the angel that shows him these things. The angel quickly rebukes him and says to only worship GOD, for the angel is a fellow just like John. This testimony of what happens in the vision comes from JESUS, it is HIS SPIRIT.
]
Revelation 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
[
Note:
This is JESUS returning. HE does not come as a babe to pay the price for our sins this time. This time HE comes with an Iron Rod to rule the nations.
In Revelation 6:2, the rider on the white horse with the cheap fabric imitation bow was antichrist. The rider on this white horse is the True CHRIST, and HE comes to take back HIS Kingdom and punish those that are wicked.
]
Revelation 19:12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
Revelation 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
[
Note:
The flame of Fire is HIS presence, HIS Shekinah Glory. On his head are many crowns: KING of kings and LORD of lords. HE was clothed with a vesture dipped in Blood: HE was Crucified. And HIS Name is The WORD Of GOD. We have access to that WORD now. We can know HIS Voice.
]
Revelation 19:14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
[
Note:
Remember who it is that was granted to wear fine white linen. It was HIS bride. For the fine white linen is the righteousness of saints. Again, what are those garments made from? Our righteous acts. It is the only thing we can take with us when we leave this flesh life. What is righteousness? It means to do what is right. A righteous act can be as simple as smiling at someone who is down, and can reach all the way up to the point at which we cause someone to seek out and follow HIM.

Revelation 19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
[
Note:
Remember in Revelation chapter one?
Revelation 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
Revelation 1:17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Revelation 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
The sharp Sword is TRUTH. It’s a two edged Sword; the TRUTH cuts both ways.
HE rules with an Iron Rod throughout the Millennium. That is Iron Rod discipline. And as we have already seen, the winepress is where the grapes are harvested. HE harvests those grapes that are wicked with a sickle. You do not harvest grapes with a sickle. The grapes would splatter. They are experiencing the WRATH of ALMIGHTY GOD.
]
Revelation 19:16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
[
Note:
“KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS”:
Mary’s father was of the King line, and Mary’s mother was a Levitical priestess. JESUS is MELCHIZEDEK; The KING PRIEST. KING OF THE JUST, KING OF THE ELECT.
]
Revelation 19:17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;
Revelation 19:18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.
[
Note:
This is the result of harvesting grapes with a sickle. This is how these people will be put into their spirit bodies. The blood will reach up to the horses bridal. The point is that this marks the end of the flesh part of this age.
]
Revelation 19:19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.
Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
[
Note:
This is where satan’s system and his role as antichrist ends. These are thrown into the lake of Fire to exist no more. The devil will be placed in the bottomless pit for the duration of the Millennium, then at the end of the Millennium he will be released for a short season to test those who underwent the Iron Rod discipline. After this, he will be cast into the lake of Fire along with those who receive the second death.
]
Revelation 19:21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
[
Note:
Those that are left will be slain by The WORD Of GOD. This is the two edged Sword of TRUTH; GOD’S WORD, The Bible.
]
This concludes chapter nineteen of the book of Revelation. In chapter twenty we will cover:
The Thousand Years, The Defeat of Satan, and Judgment Before the Great White Throne.
